The study investigates the use and effects of smartphones in online education. The study participants were the students of the seven major universities and colleges in Ilocos Norte, and they were chosen using a convenience sampling technique. The study used a quantitative research method and a descriptive research approach to measure the use and effects of smartphones in business students' learning activities. Using frequencies and weighted mean, it was found that students use smartphones because they are flexible and convenient. The main advantage of using cell phones is the email capability. Though it is advantageous, there are also some detriments such as expensive and students cannot avoid distractions. Implications, conclusions, and recommendations were also provided in the study.
